I agree 100%. It’s a bummer when an interviewer only has a marginal knowledge of the person he or she is interviewing. Happens all too much. John Fogerty is the real deal, a genuine folk hero, these songs became classics the day they were written, I’d say!

My wife's 85 year old uncle , slapped his hands together and said ,"it's about time they played something good" , he jumped up and grabbed a young gal and tore the dance floor up with her , stealing the show , he's gone now but uncle Rodger and CCR stole the show. PS , he was 100% correct when he said it's about time they played something good , great memory i thought I'd share, and i hope John F. and the band members see this and know they had an old man moving like he was 18 again and their music got the party started, awesome story.

John Fogerty is an American treasure, one of the best rock singer/songwriter/guitarists of all time. He still puts on an incredible show. This video is priceless, as he explains the history of his iconic guitar and how he came up with his signature dropped tuning. His brother Tom on rhythm guitar played the same chord progressions, but in standard tuning, which gave the band their lush two-guitar harmonies. Thank you John Fogerty for all the musical pleasure you have given us.

I like quite a few of their songs. I think I listen to "Who'll Stop the Rain" quite a bit. I get on a binge where I listen to all the songs I can think of with a certain word in them ... Brook Benton did "Rainy Night in Georgia," Temptations did "I wish it would Rain,", etc, etc.

Nothing but love & adoration for this humble and genuine human being! We need more people like J.C. He is truly a National Treasure. Amazing his voice is still to this day as good as it ever was, and his music is timeless. God Bless!
